About
My Center for Progressive Treatment is best for substance-involved individuals and their loved ones who have not reached their goals with traditional treatment, especially those who are not inclined toward 12-step (AA or NA) approaches. We believe that you, the client, 1) know what treatment will work for you (you pick from a wide array of scientifically-proven treatments vs. the traditional idea that others should decide for you); 2) already have the power to change (vs. it comes from admitting powerlessness); and 3) are your own best source of motivation (vs. it comes from external pressure or a higher power). We help our clients appreciate that the most profound way to motivate yourself and others is to realize that 1) No one absolutely has to change - we are all free to decide for ourselves, 2) Everyone already has enough motivation, and 3) Unlocking your inner motivation is not a lengthy and mysterious process. Finally, our belief is that true recovery comes from within the substance-involved person versus outside pressure. We acknowledge that clients are FREE to decide whether or not to change, FREE to decide WHY they might want to change and FREE to choose HOW to change.
